Crunchyroll<\/a> announced on Thursday that it will begin streaming the English dub<\/a> for the One Piece<\/a> anime’s Elbaph arc this fall in the U.S., Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and South Africa.<\/p>\n

The Elbaph arc debuted<\/a> in Japan on April 5. Crunchyroll is streaming<\/a> the arc.<\/p>\n

Singer Aina The End<\/a> performs<\/a> the opening theme song “Luminous,” and rock band 36km\/h<\/a> perform the ending theme song “Sono Mirai” (That Future).<\/p>\n

Toei Animation<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0One Piece anime producer Ry\u016bta Koike<\/a> announced<\/a> in October 2025 that the anime was reducing its annual episode output to a maximum of 26 episodes moving forward starting in 2026. Following the conclusion of the Egghead arc last year, the anime took a three-month production hiatus from January-March 2026. The anime returned in April 2026 for the first of two\u00a0cours<\/a>\u00a0(quarters of a year) with the start of the new Elbaph arc.<\/p>\n

According to\u00a0Toei Animation, the new schedule allows episodes to “incorporate more content, tempo, and pacing of the manga while continuing to leverage the unique storytelling that is only possible with animation.” Historically, with only few exceptions, the anime has aired most weeks since its premiere in 1999. However, the pace has slowed considerably over the years.<\/p>\n

The Egghead arc in the anime\u00a0debuted<\/a>\u00a0in January 2024. In mid-October 2024, the franchise<\/a>\u00a0announced<\/a>\u00a0that the anime’s Egghead arc would pause to “recharge,” and then the arc would continue in April 2025. Part 2 of the Egghead arc premiered with its first episode (1,123rd overall episode) on\u00a0Fuji TV<\/a>\u00a0on April 5, 2025 and aired alongside a\u00a0recap<\/a>\u00a0episode of Part 1 of the Egghead arc. The second episode (1,124th overall episode) aired on April 6, 2025 with its new\u00a0timeslot<\/a>\u00a0at 11:15 p.m. JST (10:15 a.m. EDT).<\/p>\n

During the Egghead arc’s break,\u00a0One Piece Log: Fish-Man Island Saga<\/a>; a 21-episode abridged version of the Fish-Man Island arc of the anime with reshot scenes, retouched art, and other improvements; aired in its place.<\/p>\n

Netflix<\/a> will begin streaming<\/a> “all seven episodes” of the first season of The One Piece, Wit Studio<\/a>‘s remake<\/a> of the One Piece anime, worldwide in February 2027. The seven episodes will recount the story from the first 50 manga chapters over the course of about 300 minutes. <\/p>\n
